According to visual estimates, it is possible to reach the fence by joining the two wooden ladders together, but for the sake of stability, we still use wooden planks at the junction of the wooden ladders, and then tie them up with ropes and screws. Then several people carefully lifted the ladder out of the window.

Lift it up a little higher...... Be careful...... Okay, that's it......

The ladder bent downward due to its own weight, and we finally adjusted the angle and placed the foot of the ladder on the fence. There happened to be a bracket on the fence to mount spotlights, and the ladder could be securely snapped onto it.

Okay, so what's next? Everyone began to look at each other. The bridge is built, so who will go up first?

After struggling for a long time, I finally mustered up the courage to come to the window, but Xiao Lin grabbed me and shook her head desperately.

"Let me do it!" The madman stepped forward.

"But ......"

He stopped me from going on: "Brother Chen, this was originally my plan, let me go first." ”

He climbed up the window, turned around, carefully tread his feet on the ladder, and began to climb down hand and foot.

"See you below, everyone!" He took the time to wave his hand, his face full of confidence and calmness. After this period of understanding, I know that the madman is a brave and resourceful man of action, with developed motor nerves, and can often make useful suggestions, and is a rare talent.

He quickly passed the ladder junction we had been fearing and climbed steadily, swinging rhythmically as he moved.

Well done, madman! I said in my heart. His actions undoubtedly reassured everyone, and even the most nervous pale-faced young man began to eagerly try, asking "whose turn is next?"

The mutation occurred in the second half of the road, and a night wind blew from nowhere, and the rustle of leaves could be heard in the distance. The wind caused the ladder to shake violently, and the madman had to hold on to it tightly.

I thought to myself, yes, it's wise to stop for a moment and wait for the gust of wind to pass before climbing. However, I soon realized that something was wrong, the wind never stopped, and the ladder shook harder and harder.

Wait a minute......

Didn't the wind stop? I put my hand out the window and didn't feel a hint of wind. The gust of wind had obviously passed, but the shaking of the ladder had not stopped.

"Y-don't shake it anymore, okay?" At this moment came the call of a madman, who was excited to hold the ladder. Seeing this, Guan Fei and I immediately pushed open the window and grabbed the two people at the foot of the ladder, and at the same time clung to the shaking ladder.

"Madman, calm down, we've got the ladder under control and won't shake it anymore!" I shouted.

However, this sentence did not seem to enter his ears, and he yelled at the ground with difficulty: "I grass, I told you to stop......"

"We didn't move!" I explained aloud that the strange thing was that the ladder was still shaking.

"Stop! Stop it! Stop, ahh The madman howled frantically. Guan Fei and I were so frightened that we retracted our hands.

At this time, no one touched the ladder, and there was no wind, but the ladder shook more violently than before.

I shouted: "Calm down madman, you're okay, the wind has stopped, no one touches the ladder, you see, you look ahead, it's almost there!" ”

I don't know if he heard these words clearly, I just know that what happened in an instant became extremely terrifying. On this dark night, I watched as a man let go of his hand and slid helplessly down a wide ladder into hell.

Seeing this scene, I felt dizzy in my head, I held my head, my breath was short, cold sweat broke out, my hands and feet were cold, I couldn't believe what I saw in front of me.

Xiao Lin covered her mouth and screamed, she buried her head in my chest, trembling desperately. But I just felt dizzy, as if I had been short-circuited, unable to comprehend and unable to accept what was in front of me.

Fear instantly engulfed the tiny room. Everyone was silent and shivering, except for the crows in the nearby lone trees and the hissing of the dead below for the fresh flesh that had fallen for them, playing an even more terrifying melody.

Impossible.

It can't be successful.

It's impossible to survive.

……

I could hear a similar background noise rising up in everyone's spine, sending a chill down everyone's spine.

It took a long, long time for me to recover from my dizziness, but my head still refused to accept this fact - the madman, Lu Tianfeng, bravely stood up for his partner a moment ago, why is this gone, this is gone...... Something must have gone wrong, right?

Guan Fei walked over with a pale face and said, "The madman has sacrificed, what should we do next?" ”

I staggered to my feet, shook my head and said, "Although the madman is dead, his efforts cannot be in vain, we must live, we must live......"

I adjusted my breathing and said firmly, "I'll go next!" ”

"No, you can't go!" Xiao Lin said excitedly.

I looked at her seriously: "Xiao Lin, you should understand that someone must stand up and break the dilemma now, and this person must be me!" ”

"No," Guan Fei said, "this person should be me!" ”

I brushed his hand away and said calmly, "No, you're too heavy, what if you crush the ladder halfway through?" You can't take that risk. ”

I looked around, and all but the three of us outsiders were still able to keep our composure, and everyone was frightened, even the uncle who had just volunteered was sluggish. It can't be delayed any longer, everyone's mental and physical strength is now close to the limit, and it will only get worse and worse in the future without food supplements.

Moreover, the most critical point for us is that Lin Yifei, the culprit who caused all this, should have returned to the base, and it is unimaginable what he will do, so we must rush back as soon as possible.

I grabbed the window frame and stood up, the sight swaying from side to side in my eyes, and the front was empty. I turned around, grabbed the ladder with both hands, put my feet on the steps, and began to climb down little by little.

In the gap of the ladder, I saw that there was only a "ladder" between myself and the corpses and the dead more than ten meters below. With each step, the ladder swings up and down, and the closer you get to the middle, the more the ladder swings.

"Be careful...... "Take your time...... "It's coming soon......" The cheering on the other side of the river seems to come from another world, infinitely far away. Both sides of the body are empty, with nothing to rely on, and every swing will have a premonition that it will fall at any time. It turned out that the madman was under such mental pressure just now.

Still, I sure I can. I'm going to get over it all. I continued to climb down to the rhythm of death, and soon made it through the most bumpy part of the middle. Just when I breathed a sigh of relief and thought victory was in sight......

A strong wind blew. I couldn't help but lower my body. Immediately after, the shaking of the ladder began. The wind was the breath of death, and the ladder shook more and more, and I had to hold on to it.

Slow down...... The wind seems to have stopped, hasn't it? I subconsciously looked up at the window, Xiao Lin and Guan Fei both looked at me nervously, and they didn't dare to come out, neither of them touched the ladder.

Originally...... This is what the madman was faced with in the first place. I couldn't control the trembling of my body, the unprecedented premonition of death wrapped around me, the wide ladder turned into a thin rope in an instant, and I clung to this life-saving straw.

In a trance, I seemed to see Zhao Yinxiang, Fang Bin, Lin Peiran, and even Wang Sisi, Xiaorou, Su Yalun and Song Lili...... The ghosts of the dead roamed around me, tormenting me, gnawing at my life-saving rope inch by inch.

"Come with us......," a voice said.

"yes, the world is rotten, what's the point of living?" Another voice said.

"Come on, Li Chen...... Li Chen...... Li Chen ...... "The ghost laughed, and the laughter was as sharp as a knife.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! I screamed frantically, brushing my hand away from the non-existent dark spirit. That's when ......

"Brother Chen!" A face rushed up from underneath, its face gnawed to pieces, flesh blurred, and its eyeballs bulging out.

I was startled, and as soon as I leaned over, I slid to the side. I opened my eyes wide and looked down, and there was a dense mass of corpses below. In a small clearing in the middle of the corpses, I saw a pair of horrified eyes looking at me—the madman's body had been hollowed out, and there was not much left under his jawbone, and he maintained his pre-death demeanor, his eyes staring in disbelief at the long ladder of death that had been erected by himself, but which had finally buried him.
